After the students have crossed the finish line, they will enter the Results page, where they can engage in online discussion with their peers about the scenario they just completed.
Students will see an entry for each player in the game. If the class was broken into multiple groups playing different instances of the game, their discussions will be separate as well. Each student's entry shows their final position across the finish line, their final time, and any points they received for finishing. Next to their car is shown their conclusion from the final pit stop, including whether they accepted, rejected, or withheld judgment about the claim. Their reasoning is also shown.
Each student can give either a "thumbs-up" or a "thumbs-down" to each other player in their game. They can also click the "Comments" button to add a comment to another player's response. Each icon shows how many responses have been made for that player. By clicking the player's entry, anyone can see the comments that have been left for that player. Thumbs-up and thumbs-down can be left for individual comments as well. Tips:
The comments are presented linearly. They are not "threaded." If students is responding to another students' comment, they might want to make it clear by adding the name of the person they are responding to.
Points are awarded for finishing in a specific place. Students can also earn points by making comments that earn thumbs-up responses from their peers. Thumbs-down responses cause a student to lose points.
If students want to check back on the facts of the scenario, they can view either the claim or the whole article by clicking the appropriate button.
